Props to Spurs Fans

[Kori Ellis]

You guys are in playoff form with the massive meltdown threads. :tu

Spurs will win the rest of the games of the regular season.

©Good times. :cooldevil

[duncan228]

First big meltdown this season and it's March. Remember when they were weekly. :lol

[Obstructed_View]

Sorry for starting threads, but I feel vindicated. I've been saying how stupid this coach is for years, and this is exactly the kind of shit he does. I can name at least three other times he's done stuff like this just off the top of my head and it's backfired, not even counting the playoff choke that he engineered in '06. I'm praying that Parker calls out Pop for this shit. I'd rather see the Spurs fall apart right now than go into the postseason with a coach that thinks this game is somehow not his fault.

[DPG21920]

>acting like you aren't concerned

[Mugen]

:lol if this game doesnt warrant a meltdown then i dont know what would....

[jag]

tbh, I'm concerned with dpg's lack of emotion right now.

[Kori Ellis]

I'm not criticizing the meltdown. You guys haven't had an opportunity to melt down like this all year.

[DPG21920]

Jag, chill out. It's scary how you get so emotional. It's also scary that you are so emotionally attached to me :lol

I bring very logical takes that are backed up with facts. Please point out when I don't.

[Obstructed_View]

Gee, if only someone with press credentials were in the locker room to ask Pop about this...

;)

[Splits]

I'm not criticizing the meltdown. You guys haven't had an opportunity to melt down like this all year.

I can't believe the site is still running smooth. This is like Fuckushima x 10000

[TE]

It was just an absolute textbook way to choke a game. That, and the fact that the playoffs are nearing....well you get what you get.


:( Terrible night right now.

[pawe]

Yeah, wait til the Spurs are on a 5 game losing streak and see what happens to this forum.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh if I'm not mistaken this isn't the first or second or even third meltdown of the year

[Stringer_Bell]

First big meltdown this season and it's March. Remember when they were weekly. :lol

No wonder I've been eager to pop my head in here every day this season, rarely have there been any emo days like today. I'm not personally concerned for the team, but some of these thread starters need to be kept away from sharp objects until Timmy comes back.

[crc21209]

I put part of the blame on Pop, but he didnt turn the ball over with 35 seconds left in the game with a 4 point lead when you basically have to hold it....TP! And with a 2 point lead you dont even get a shot off and turn it over with 7 seconds left...Manu! TP and Manu were absolute dog shit in crunch time today...WTF.

[DJ Mbenga]

its funny to see meltdowns. especially with the fans answers for solutions. people hating on pop. i even remember some laker fans who wanted phil jackson fired once and them to hire ben howland. 10 time champ for a college coach. yup

[c whata11]

my first real meltdown experience on spurstalk. i appreciate it.

[ElNono]

[carina_gino20]

It's pretty refreshing. :lol Haven't seen it very often this year, so much so that the forum has sometimes been dead during non-game days.

[DesignatedT]

my first real meltdown experience on spurstalk. i appreciate it.

:lol get out now or you will never leave.

[jag]

Jag, chill out. It's scary how you get so emotional. It's also scary that you are so emotionally attached to me :lol

Woah...easy, bro. No need to get so emotional.

[tdunk21]

its just the 15th loss of the season....

[Capt Bringdown]

<ivory tower>Har, har, Fans sure are funny and I'm such a wry observer of human nature. Aren't I clever?</ivory tower>

[Budkin]

Yeah, wait til the Spurs are on a 5 game losing streak and see what happens to this forum.

It could very realistically happen now. We have to play Portland again at home on a goddamn back to back after what could most definitely be another loss at Memphis.... and then after that we get goddamn Boston.

[DPG21920]

Woah...easy, bro. No need to get so emotional.

OMG bro, why u raging :lol

[jag]

This is a very appropriate time to rage.

[Mugen]

SpursTalk meltodwns is Chicken Soup for the SpursFan soul. Please let us medicate.

[SourCandy]

Meltdown, i'm not at all surprised it's not just gnsfans. What are spurs biggest losing streak...like 2..3? I'd panic at 4...5. Good lord you guys are pathetic.

Oh not all ..most :rolleyes



btw lakeshow are doing great :)

[Manu20]

Not quite like the meltdown of Sonics 2005....

[SequSpur]

yeah, thanks kori...i watched the game by myself and lots of popcorn....

:depressed

[crc21209]

Of course they are, it's easy when they have a cupcake schedule the rest of the way. It's easy when you play the Clippers..

[slayermin]

This team taking years off my life. Gotta stop watching but can't.

[elbamba]

This game was not a textbook meltdown. This game was a YMCA meltdown. Losing the ball off of your foot, getting the ball taken right out of your hands in the backcourt without any real pressure.

[pawe]

Get your Spurs basketball shit straight woman.

Nail on the fucking head DJ.

[Cane]

This place does look like a god damn New York Knicks forum after a loss but this one was so shitty it was special.

Imo Parker's 8 turnovers and overall lackadaisical effort is mostly to be blamed. Andre Miller and the Blazers consistently show why Tony Parker wasn't much of an all star candidate this season :bang

[jay_shs]

I slept through the game.

[Chomag]

There was a game tonight? Oh...

Well can I still meltdown too?

[++SaiNt TiAg0++]

yes and im glad i didn't doubt you guys this year, i learned my lesson. im glad the spurs our struggling (it had to happen sometime) at least tiagos playing ball, and getting in basketball shape/14 boards the other night playing post defense. instead of bonner carrying the spurs haha

if splitter gets big minutes off the bench when timmy gets back i expect the spurs to be as tough as their record says. BUT if bonner is played like before we'll have an early exit because of pop's stubbornness :bang

[TimDunkem]

splitter sucks. in 2 years it will be like, remember splitter rofl hope he's having fun in toronto
So, you believe the Spurs will trade him before his contract is up?

[KaiRMD1]

I think this game deserved a meltdown.

[polandprzem]

Props to Kori Ellis for starting a great full of knowledge thread :tu

[PBEEZY]

Fire Pop
Trade Parker
ad nauseum

[George Gervin's Afro]

Haha... freaking SPurs fans... no meltdown from me now but I reserve the right to meltdown at a later date this season:toast

[Cane]

Props to Kori Ellis for starting a great full of knowledge thread :tu

Raising the bar! :p:

Yep, this is the second 2 game losing streak of the season. I can see why people want to jump over the ledge. :lmao

You're a complete and total DUMBFUCK. Did Greg Popovich get picked clean by Andre? Did Greg Popovich dribble the ball off of Wes Matthews' leg? We were up four with the ball and 30 seconds in the game.

[ChuckD]

I put part of the blame on Pop, but he didnt turn the ball over with 35 seconds left in the game with a 4 point lead when you basically have to hold it....TP! And with a 2 point lead you dont even get a shot off and turn it over with 7 seconds left...Manu! TP and Manu were absolute dog shit in crunch time today...WTF.

Manu made one big mistake, and it was costly. Tony's entire game was a giant rolling mistake. He made some high degree of difficulty shots, but still shot only 7-17. He had more turnovers (8) than FG makes. Horrible.

[spurtech09]

15 loses ain't bad at all....anyways spurs should be 59-13 right but turnovers and mistakes just kill this team....spurs just gave away free gifts to denver and portland...If denever and portland are really good they would of blow the spurs out of the water but they didn't...they barley beat the spurs and without timmy d....just imagine if timmyd was in the spurs line-up...spurs would blowout denver and portland by atleast 20 pts....

[bigdog]

I'm not very concerned, tbh.

[LakerHater]

Well, @ least Spurs fan isnt like fLaker fan..... shutting down the whole NBA forum after a loss to the #1 team in the league!

[duncan228]

I can't believe the site is still running smooth.

:toast to Kori and timvp for the excellent servers. There was once a time where sigs and search had to be turned off on game nights because of the heavy traffic. ST runs great since the upgrade. It's appreciated. :)

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I'm with Kori, the meltdowns are hilarious. So we lost a couple of close games, so what? This team has proven its character and quality throughout the season, and everything changes the day the playoffs begin.

I fully expect us to lose game 1 of the first round, as we often do in Championship years, then for the team to crank up the intensity two gears after that.

There are no certainties in life, and the NBA is wide-open for about 5 teams to win this season, but we are certainly one of those teams. Let's enjoy the ride. :D

[DieHardSpursFan1537]

Every team has meltdowns. While I hate them, I knew one was coming this season.

[timtonymanu]

no meltdown for me. I'm just angry because I saw the Batum tip live.

Remember this Spurs team with Timmy beat Dallas last week?

People were expecting the Blazers to blow us out last night anyway.

[Ice009]

Manu made one big mistake, and it was costly. Tony's entire game was a giant rolling mistake. He made some high degree of difficulty shots, but still shot only 7-17. He had more turnovers (8) than FG makes. Horrible.

I could tell that Tony was setting up for that top of the key jumper that he took late in the 4th quarter before he took it. That was a terrible shot and I knew that if he took it that it could cost us as I haven't seen him make hardly any this season from straight on just inside the 3 point line.

He made tons of stupid errors, but he has still been either our best player or second best most consistent player all season. Simply just a really, really shit game from TP.
